  Apparently the Google maps app on ios is very terrible

  Friend of mine showed it to me on a quite recent phone and it’s super stuttery and laggy when scrolling around

    That’s kinda funny considering what garbage applemaps was when it launched.

    This isn’t my experience, and I had a iPhone 12 Pro up until a couple of weeks ago. Google Maps generally ran alright that I can remember.

    On the newest phones it’s really smooth, but those phones also have enough horsepower to make pretty much any app run smoothly.

    Honestly I wouldn’t care about the stuttering and sluggishness.

    As much as I hate Google, I will have to admit that Google Maps is one of the best pieces of software ever to exist. I try to use Organic Maps and OSMand but Google Maps is just much upto date, has reviews, has real time traffic updates along with road closures. OSM based maps and Apple Maps is way way way way way behind — atleast in my country.
